I overloaded my hand truck with cement bags (oops) and "blew" both tires. So I thought I'd buy new tubes.
But upon inspection the tires say "tubeless." They are not hard rubber or plastic. They hold air and have Schrader valves.
I don't see any damage and so am assuming I just popped the seal where the rubber meets the wheel. But I don't see any evidence of glue or whatever kept the tire to the wheel.
I'm loathe to spend $40 or $50 on new tires for a simple hand truck that doesn't seem worth more than that. Suggestions?
